DETROIT. Mich, April 5.-Retnrns from
Yesterdays election are slowly coming in.
1t being settled that the Republican state
ticket has been elected by about O,0OO
plurality. the interest centerS on the pro-
hibition amendment. The evening Journal
SAYS it is defeated by $500 majority, and
others claim the majority will reach $1,000,
but the prohibition committee still claim the
adoption of the amendment. This claim
is based on the fact that all the cities have
been heard from. while country localities,
where the movement had its greatest
strength, have not yet been reported. All
figures so far received on the amendment
are partly estimated, and little confidence
can be placed in them. although it seems
probable the amendment is defeated by a
small vote. This evening the Prohibition
lists claim that frauds were committed
against them III several wards in this city.
and say that several precincts will be con-
tested. They claim that opponents of the
amendment were allowed to vote several
times, and that votes against the amend
ment were purchased.
Mdnight-The later figures cut down the
vote against the prohibition amendment so
that it will be less than 5000. The Tribune
claims a majority on the state ticket of
from 10, 900 to II, and the Free Press
comedies 1000.
1880 p. m.-The latest figures on the
election place the Republican plurality on
the state ticket at about s, 900, while OH the
prohibition amendment the opposition ma
iority will be about 3, 500.

DULUTH, Mimi, April 5.-United States
Marshal Campbell renewed proceedings in
the famous perjury cases of Osborne and

Osborne, the principal defendant has never
testified yet, but says when it comes down
to question of fraudulent entries, he be-
lieves he can prove by at tleast 500 witnesses
that the whole system of securing lands
under the claim laws in the woods of North
ern Minnesota is fraud, evasion and farce.
Osborne further AYERS that in the entire
woods of eXtreme Northern Minnesota, ex-
cept Immediately around Duluth and in
one or two other places. there is not really

WASHINGTON, April 5.-The battle ship

the department. Which of the plans for
the 5000 tons cruiser will be selected from

doubt as to the relative merits of the de-
signs and will act largely upon the advice
OF the committee which is shortly to be
